The Friday Five

How many TVs do you have in your home?
One.

On average, how much TV do you watch in a week?
None.

Do you feel that television is bad for young children?
Depends on how much and what type. With supervision, chosen appropriately, and not taking over their day, no.

What TV shows do you absolutely HAVE to watch, and if you miss them, you're heartbroken?
Uh, none?

If you had the power to create your own television network, what would your line-up look like?

Sigh. I have no clue any more. I'd try for good drama/science fiction/spy/police/etc. shows, with a smattering of the same genre movies, plus some Discover-like shows, I guess. And I probably still wouldn't watch it!

I have a new dentist.

That simple. He's actually slightly better about making sure the needle doesn't hurt than the old one (and one of the reasons I favored her was that she was good at that). It's not that she didn't care, it's that he handles the needle better, best I can tell.

He's got a sense of humor, and he explains what he's doing. Even if the filling doesn't stay in, and he says it should, he's as good as she is - and he's literally a block from work.

Just gotta transfer my records.

And wait for my cheek to come back. I hope it does by lunch, at least enough to eat without having to chew all on one side. Such a nuisance, that.

Yay! Friends!

D&E are in town. We're getting together tomorrow at about 10 to do Saturday Market and whatever else sounds good (probably the Japanese Gardens, possibly Powell's). They'll crash tomorrow night at our place, and fly out Sunday.

I'll be on call from late evening Saturday on, but...shouldn't be too bad, I hope. I hope I hope. I forgot about the stay-over thing, or rather, I forgot which night it was.

I only wish I'd remembered to use it as an excuse, but that's not fair; M, who is covering for me, is getting ready to go camping/hunting with his dad for a week, starting Monday. He'd probably rather not cover thru Sunday morning....
